Winger

Pull Winger Coloured edition

The American rock band Winger formed in 1987 and they released their third studio album Pull in 1993. Their music changed from the glam metal to a more aggressive and darker musical style. The political messages in the lyrics brought both their music and vocals to a higher level. The clean production and melodic changes leans towards the progressive rock/metal. All the characteristics of the guitar driven sound keeps songs like "Down Incognito" and the groovy "Blind Revolution Mad" in tone. Their absolute masterpiece "Who's the One" is the last track and is an acoustic ballad of the best kind. The 50 minutes of pure power of their sound did eventually lead to their break-up, but gladly they reunited and continued making great albums.

Winger could be categorized as one of the many bands who stepped into the last wave of the glam metal scene. Compared to many others they showed their true skills by evolving to a band which created clever melodies and clean vocals in their hard rock sound. After two break-ups they're back on the track again since 2006. They still show their true power by performing worldwide.
